Ariel 4F/600 - 1932

My daughter wanted to have wedding photos with this Ariel, so yesterday we went to the park to take some pictures.

Both are beautiful.

I recall when I got my SCOTT 1927 Squirrel together the Kid over the road said. "Did you buy if new.?" I wondered how old he thought I was . My eldest son has it now. Everything there looks spick and span. Risky getting wedding gear near an old bike? Nev

Very nice, great photos.

This is approximately what our beauty looks like after traveling about 2000 km along the northern roads of Sweden and Finland.

Looks great!

After our expedition beyond the Arctic Circle I realized that the camshaft lubrication is still excessive and the excess oil is not able to return to the oil pan. The lubrication of the crank is then insufficient. We had to make a new regulator screw which already had a stripped thread at the end and reduce the amount of oil flowing to the upper timing chain. Now it will probably be fine.

when there was too much oil in the upper distribution, it could not drain from the block in time and the timing chains scattered it then some of this oil leaked around the magneto after 300 km there was little oil in the engine and it was overheating. I was unhappy about it. I did not like it, especially when we had a fast section of the road. At that time the leak was serious.

You have to look after it. They are thin on the ground. Looks Lovely. Nev

it didn't help, pressure is leaking from the engine to the magnet again and it can't keep the grease on the wheels. It's slowly leaking from the magnet. Where else could I have made a mistake? It only happens when I walk faster. 70-80 km per hour, but it makes me angry

[Karol Burger]

maybe the fault is that the engine is well sealed and the excess pressure has nowhere to escape. When the vaseline runs out, oil leaks through the magneto, it's not much, but I don't like it. This is what the motorcycle looks like after 50 km
